Note-taking guidelines for faculty

Many students are approved for volunteer note-taking as an academic accommodation and we may require your support to recruit a volunteer.

Please make the following announcement in class and post this request to Blackboard. Kindly repeat this announcement until a volunteer is recruited.

"There are one or more students in this class who requires a volunteer note-taker as an accommodation for a disability. By signing up and posting your notes, you can make a significant difference for these students' capacity to fully participate in this course. To sign up go to: http://www.studentlife.utoronto.ca/accessibility/pcourselist.aspx or come in person to Accessibility Services, 455 Spadina Avenue, Suite 400."

Many students have reported that the quality of their notes improves through volunteering.

Volunteer note-takers receive a certificate of recognition.

Faculty notes

If you are willing to provide your lecture notes, please email them to as.notetaking@utoronto.ca and we will make them available to the student. Your support for our work is much appreciated.
